Raining Hammers

Monumental

We're out here in the middle of nowhere
Driving to the ends of the earth --
   no direction --
Closing the door to opportunity
   can't ignore what we feel.
But we swallow our feelings
   no willing to show them --
   eventually choking on it.
Our tears swell up -
   we have to hold back
   [we let it all build up inside.]
Breaking the chains is not easy,
   it would be a monumental event.

Troubled mind

As i look around,
   people walk
   through life blindly - ([spiral eyes])
Start to wonder
   if it's ever worth
   the trouble...
My troubled mind
   cannot sort
   through the violent
   echoing of all that surrounds.
People tell me that i
   should look at the good things,
   as i warily agree -
Scared, frightened,
   and lost in a world
   that has no cares.
